My daughter has taken admission at Nitte Minakshi at Bangalore in CSE core but recently she has been offered a seat in Jaypee noida sector 128 in IT course. Please suggest should she take admission here at noida after withdrawal from Nitte.
Ans: Hi Sir,
I recommend pursuing Computer Science and Engineering (CSE).
In this comparison, I am focusing on the program rather than the institution.
Reason: The curriculum of CSE is generally broader than that of Information Technology (IT). CSE includes fundamental principles of computer science, algorithms, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), software engineering, and system design. In contrast, IT tends to concentrate more on the practical application of computing technologies to address real-world business challenges.
Scope of CSE: The scope of CSE is extensive, offering a solid theoretical foundation and a research-oriented approach. This leads to a variety of career paths, including software development, research, and advanced technology roles.
BEST WISHES.

Kindly further suggest with respect to academics as well as placement of both the colleges. Thanks
Ans: Hi Sir, both programs are completely different, making comparison difficult. What are her plans after completing her undergraduate studies?
Asked on - Aug 07, 2025 | Answered on Aug 07, 2025
Her future plan is to do job in software industry.
Ans: How about PG?

No, right now there is no planning for PG.
Placement and academics is the main concern.
Ans: HI SIR,
I want to address aspiring students regarding their inquiries about placement opportunities. It's important to understand that placements primarily depend on the students themselves, not just the institutions.
When selecting a program at any institution, there are two major factors to focus on:
1. Academics (including both theoretical knowledge and practical lab facilities)
2. Faculty strength and experience
Many aspirants overlook these crucial factors. Reviews or opinions from third parties may not accurately reflect the true quality of a college.
Do institutions typically disclose that their teaching methodologies differ from others? No.
Do they share whether they comply with regulations set by educational authorities? No.
This lack of transparency can negatively impact students' education.
Additionally, many institutions conduct practical sessions in group settings rather than on an individual basis, which limits hands-on training. Unfortunately, many students show a preference for group tasks, which can lead to challenges during recruitment when individual skills are evaluated.
No one will consider the above two factors. But the other factor they will concentrate on.....which is nothing but placement.
If you visit the website of any of the institutions, they might have shared the statistics of placement activities.
As for placement statistics, institutions often claim that 100% of their students are placed each year. This is misleading.
In reality, at least 20-25% of students choose to pursue higher education, and about 5% may opt to start their own businesses. If you request evidence of placement success, institutions might provide records that are not relevant to current outcomes.
Regarding your daughter's situation, I don't know her academic strengths or attitude, but simply attending campus recruitment events will not guarantee success. Candidates need to prepare thoroughly before interviews. She should focus on becoming employable. There are many graduates in the job market, but not all are truly employable.
Here's what she should consider doing:
If she decides to pursue a job, she should prepare accordingly.
- Encourage her to gain knowledge in her chosen field.
- Internships in the industry can provide valuable experience.
- She should work on developing soft skills.
- She might also consider pursuing additional courses related to her interests, as this could enhance her employability.
Many candidates do not realize that campus recruitment offers advantages over external job search methods since it allows them to better understand their competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, creating more opportunities.
Please note: If she intends to pursue higher education, I advise her not to participate in the recruitment drive, as this could negatively affect both the institution's reputation and the opportunities available to others.
If you have any further questions, I am happy to share my thoughts.
BEST WISHES.
